Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God—an apostle moreover of Jesus Christ, —according to the faith of the chosen ones of God, and the personal knowledge of the truth that is according to godliness, —
PAULUS ladun Kot o wanporon en Iesus Kristus amen, duen poson en me pilipildar en Kot akan o duen erpit en melel ong pai ren Kot;
2 In hope of life age-abiding; which God, who cannot lie, promised before age-during times, (aiōnios g166)
O kaporoporeki maur soutuk, me Kot so likam inaukidar mon tapin kaua. (aiōnios g166)
3 but hath manifested in its fitting seasons, even his word, in the proclamation with which entrusted am I—by injunction of our Saviour God:
A ni a ansau a kotin kasansaledar a masan ki padak, me ko ong ia, duen kusoned en Kot atail Saunkamaur.
4 Unto Titus, my true child according to a common faith, —favour and peace, from God [our] Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Ong Titus nai seri melel ni ata poson ta ieu: Mak o popol sang ren Kot Sam o Kristus Iesus atail Saunkamaur en mi re om!
5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that, the things remaining undone, thou mightest completely set in order, and mightest establish, in every city, elders, as, I, with thee arranged: —
Iet karepen ai kamodang uk edi Kreta, pwe koe en kapwaiada, me kaikenta wiauier o kasapwilada saunkoa kan ni kanim karos, due i kakaliki ong uk.
6 If anyone is unaccusable, a husband of, one wife, having children that believe, who are not charged with riotous excess, nor insubordinate;
Saunkoa amen en indand mau, o warok en li ta men, o me na seri kan posonla, o so kaindandeki, me re kamom de sopeik.
7 For it is needful that the overseer be—unaccusable, as God’s steward, not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not ready to wound, not seeking gain by base means,
Pwe pisop en pungla, duen saunkoa en Kot amen, der katiwo, der purianikom, der kamom wain, der pamara, der norok moni.
8 But hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, kind, possessing self-control,
A ren apwali men kairu o pok ong me mau, o kanongama, o pung, o saraui, o makelekel.
9 Holding fast, in the matter of his teaching, the faithful word, that he may be able both to encourage with his healthful instruction, and, the gainsayers, to refute.
Kolekoleta masan, me udan pung o koiok ong padak, pwen kak ong panauiki padak en kamaur o kapung ong me katiwo kan.
10 For there are many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially they of the circumcision, —
Pwe ir me toto me malaun o kapei lokaia o me kaweid sapung, iet eten, kisan men sirkomsais.
11 Whose mouths must needs be stopped, men who are upsetting whole houses, teaching the things which ought not [to be taught] —for the sake of base gain.
Me mau ong au ar en pinapinla, pwe re kin kawukila toun im toto, o me kin padapadaki, me sota mau, pweki moni.
12 Said one from among them, a prophet, of their own!—Cretans! always false, mischievous wild-beasts, idle gluttons:
Amen irail, pein arail saukop amen inda: Men Kreta me kalap likam, man sued o laualo, nain manga.
13 This witness, is true, —for which cause, be reproving them sharply, that they may be healthy in their faith,
Kadede pot et me melel. Ari, i me koe en kapung kelail ong irail, pwe ren kelailada ni poson.
14 Not giving heed to Judaical stories and commandments of men who are turning away from the truth:
O ren der insenoki en Sus oko ar kasoi mal akan o kusoned en aramas akan, me muei sang melel.
15 All things, are pure, unto the pure, but, unto the polluted and faithless, nothing, is pure, but polluted are both their mind and conscience;
Karos me kon ong makelekel akan, a sota me kon ong me samin o so poson akan, pwe arail lamelame o pil insen arail me samin.
16 God, they confess that they know, but, by their works, they deny him, being, abominable, and obdurate, and, as to any good work, found, worthless.
Re kin inda, me re asa Kot, a ni ar wiawia kan re kin ponsasa i. Irail meid sued, o sopeik, o so koiok ong song en wiawia mau karos.
